Review:

"A well-loved series, bearing all the hilarious hallmarks of the dynamic duo, Rose Impey and Shoo Rayner. They read out loud well, but also lend themselves to individual reading as the print is large and there are plenty of drawings per page. Children leap on these with gusto. Just what the National Literacy Strategy ordered." The School Librarian
